St Matthew, St Matthew's Row

Grade II* listed with outstanding special interest as a church built 1743-6 to the designs of George Dance senior. The exterior retains much of its classical grandeur from this significant period of church-building in the capital. The original interior was lost in a mid- 19th century fire, and subsequently rebuilt after WWII bomb damage to the designs of Michael Tapper & Lewis, with works by many different artists of the period. Re- consecrated in 1961.
